Sorry about this email storm, but I hope that this may help someone else
out some day.
I found out that the G5s with serial numbers in these ranges have faulty
power supplies:
CK539xxxxxx - CK608xxxxxx
G8539xxxxxx - G8608xxxxxx
YM539xxxxxx - YM608xxxxxx
RM539xxxxxx - RM608xxxxxx
Mine is G855xxxxxxx.
I just ordered a replacement on eBay.
